Ingredients
- 1 (32 oz) bag frozen tater tots
- 1/2 lb breakfast sausage (pork or turkey)
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1 tbsp butter (optional)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 4 eggs (fried, scrambled, or poached)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- 2 tbsp chopped green onions or chives (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven and bake tater tots according to package directions until golden and crispy.
- In a skillet over medium heat, brown the sausage until fully cooked, breaking it into crumbles.
- Sprinkle flour over sausage and stir to coat; cook for 1–2 minutes to eliminate raw flour taste.
- Gradually add milk, stirring constantly; simmer until gravy thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
- While the gravy simmers, cook the eggs to your preference (fried, scrambled, or poached).
- To serve, place a layer of hot tater tots in a bowl, top with sausage gravy, and add cooked eggs.
- Garnish with shredded cheese and chopped green onions if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Use hash browns or breakfast potatoes as an alternative to tater tots.
- Sausage gravy can be made ahead and reheated with a splash of milk.
- For a vegetarian version, use plant-based sausage and omit eggs or use egg alternatives.
- Wait to add gravy until serving to maintain tater tot crispiness.
